New light-field technology gives empirical evidence for the truth of Gibson's ideas, which were were discussing the other day. I took a shot of a tomato plant earlier, see: https://pictures.lytro.com/lyt-26000943336202/pictures/473419 Let the picture load and then you can focus anywhere by clicking on a spot in the picture. But the Gibsonesque moments come when you click and then drag the image to get 'perspective shift'. It should turn the image into glorious 3D. Only Gibson's theory of vision could properly explain why this works.
